Remarks
The following example shows this filter in use
// Create the Vector that represents the Center of the gradient
var centerVector = new CIVector (100, 100); // Default is [150 150]
// Create the two colors to form the Gradient.
var color1 = CIColor.FromRgba (1, 0, 1, 1);
var color0 = CIColor.FromRgba (0, 1, 1, 1);
// Constructor the actual GaussianGradient filter
var gaussGradient = new CIGaussianGradient ()
{
Center = centerVector,
Color0 = color0,
Color1 = color1,
Radius = 280f // Default is 300
};
// The Generator Filters need to be cropped before they can be displayed
var crop = new CICrop ()
{
Image = gaussGradient.OutputImage,
// Create the Bounds based on the Size of the application Window. (UIWindow)
Rectangle = new CIVector (0, 0, window.Bounds.Width, window.Bounds.Height)
};
// Get the Final Cropped Image
var output = crop.OutputImage;
// To render the results, we need to create a context, and then
// use one of the context rendering APIs, in this case, we render the
// result into a CoreGraphics image, which is merely a useful representation
//
var context = CIContext.FromOptions (null);
var cgimage = context.CreateCGImage (output, output.Extent);
// The above cgimage can be added to a screen view, for example, this
// would add it to a UIImageView on the screen:
myImageView.Image = UIImage.FromImage (cgimage);
Produces the following output:

Constructors
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| CIGaussianGradient() |
Creates a new CIGaussianGradient with default values. |
| CIGaussianGradient(NativeHandle) |
A constructor used when creating managed representations of unmanaged objects. Called by the runtime. |
| CIGaussianGradient(NSCoder) |
A constructor that initializes the object from the data stored in the unarchiver object. |
| CIGaussianGradient(NSObjectFlag) |
Constructor to call on derived classes to skip initialization and merely allocate the object. |
